Helen Ryan

Executive Director

Helen M. Ryan is the founder of Reignite, Inc. Since 1993, Helen has owned and managed a boutique marketing and design firm. When her children were born, Helen’s focus shifted to family and raising her kids, turing the design projects over to her then-husband. After divorcing, Helen realized that her technology skills were very outdated, and put her love of studying to use, learning web development, social media strategy, and content creation, while struggling to survive on food stamps.

Helen realized that not everyone is able to learn technology and modern office skills on their own and founded Reignite, Inc.,to help other women gain these much-needed skills. Helen is the author of several books and a speaker.
